- Abstract
- This dataset shows the carbon dioxide (CO2) trunk pipelines in the contiguous United States that will be required by 2050 to connect CO2 spur pipelines to CO2 storage basins under a net-zero-emissions scenario with high biomass supply. For an overview of this "E-B+" high-biomass scenario, please refer to the "supplemental information" portion of this record.
- Purpose
- For visualizing carbon dioxide pipelines using GIS software. A growing number of pledges are being made by major corporations, municipalities, states, and national governments to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 or sooner. As part of the Net-Zero America Project, this dataset provides granular guidance on what getting to net-zero really requires and on actions needed to translate these pledges into tangible progress.
- Supplemental Information
- The E-B+ scenario, or high-biomass scenario, is one of five defined pathways whereby the United States can become carbon-neutral by 2050, as detailed in the Net-Zero America report of December 2020. Between 2020 and 2050, the E-B+ scenario assumes: 1) a less high degree of end-use electrification in transportation and buildings, 2) a minimum of 10% yearly growth in wind and solar, 3) an 80-year life for 50% of existing nuclear power, 4) no new nuclear power in California, and 5) the ongoing use of fossil fuels. By 2050, the E-B+ scenario further assumes: 1) carbon dioxide storage of no more than 1.8 Gt/y, 2) carbon dioxide emissions of -0.17 Gt, and 3) a biomass supply limit of 23 EJ/y or 1.3 Gt/y biomass.
